My husband loved the food. Lots of options for gluten free as well. It was pretty loud in there though.

Food was really good, location and set up is great, service was alright, basic more than anything actually. The only reason why I am leaving a 4 star is because they market their Cesar salad to be gluten free and IT IS NOT..... I don't know if this is a chain restaurant, but I cannot, for the life of me, imagine there is a corporate office somewhere creating these menus and not ONE said "hey..... this isn't gluten free" Very dangerous for celiac actually. I can only assume this a local restaurant with great vision and ideas. For real tho, someone needs to review their entire menu and make sure they are labeled as such, or actually make changes to the menu items to reflect the foods they have labeled with food safety icons. The other alternative I see is that the cooks are adding their own flare to the foods and that also screams dangerous behavior to me. Also, I tried to order Cesar salad with salmon instead of Chicken, usually there is an upcharge, but our waitress told us there was no substitutions, that It would be an additional 24 dollars for the salmon meal even though I was not trying to get the entire meal, just the substitution. I really think she didn't really care to make the changes for me because I just cannot image a POS system in a facility like this not have a the capability to make the substitution, which is usually what it all comes down to: NOT PHYSICALLY BEING ABLE TO RING UP SUBSTITUTIONS. I battled between leaving 3 stars and 4 stars but I do think they are closer to 4 stars because like I said, food was really good and prices are reasonable (well, the substitution part was absolutely not reasonable).
